You also don't want the checking to be too tight, since it makes upgrades when you're using OS packages more difficult if the versions have to match exactly and normally it works fine. Usually the kernel module is in its own separate package, and since you want to be able to have multiple kernel modules for different kernels installed at the same time, it's a bit tricky to ship afsd in the same package as the kernel module. Ideally, the interface should be backward-compatible, since it's not like we change the parameters often, but that may be too much work. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-devel
